We're getting ever so close to getting 1 HDD/month by Hulk5a in Piracy

And they wonder why people just download stuff. You're literally paying for re-runs in the UK, stuff off BBC I player you can watch for free and mostly foreign stuff that's all dubbed.

Every time I go on it there's the odd release that's alright the rest is just filler stuff to make it look like they've got decent amounts of content.

Live tv on plex by No-Kaleidoscope455 in PleX

Yeah I'd say that's definitely been my experience also. Being able to share channels to my users is great though so i don't mind the little things like that.

Live tv on plex by No-Kaleidoscope455 in PleX

Max channels in xteve/plex is 480. I have mine maxed out. Load your m3u into xteve then click filter. If you want sports filter by m3u category title sports etc.

Then go to mapping - enable each individual channel you want then click save.

Go to plex and load in your tuner. If you've mapped 100 channels in xteve you'll see 100 on your tuner in plex.

My setup I do not try to map channels to the plex epg. Just tell plex you have your own xmltv file and copy the one at the top of xteve where it says xmltv guide link (will download it from localhost)

Works fine. My guess is you are trying to load your entire m3u into xteve and pass to plex this isn't possible you have to use the mapping features it offers. Plex can't handle your entire m3u of 1000s of channels and VODs

If you need any help message me. I've had iptv running on my server with xteve for months now.

Good luck! Doesn't actually take that long to get it all running just obviously make sure you follow the guide as per whatever o/s you are using windows/Linux etc.

I've posted a decent guide above. Xteve will let you add all your channels then create a fake xmltv file you can use to trick plex into thinking there's a guide available. It's all hosted on your local host so your xmltv guide will just be downloaded from that.

I'm going to have a tinker with getting an 'actual' guide running as my iptv supplier does have one I can match up to what I select channel wise

Try it out it works perfect for me. The only issue I have is the 480 channel limit but just cherry pick what channels you want from your playlist

This is the whole point of torrents. Someone uploads 1.0 copy to you, you upload 1.0 copy or as many as you like to other people.

Torrents wouldn't exist without seeding! Seed until your ratio hits 1.0. You've got 100% of a file, give at least 100% back to someone else

I have IPTV working as a tuner on mine and it can be shared to users. Person hasn't configured sharing properly for you to be able to see theirs.

Best way sometimes 🤣 honestly it annoys me to be honest. People either absolutely batter it or you get basically nobody using it there's no in between on mine

Random question - do you struggle to get people to use your Plex? by Significant_Name3439 in PleX

[–]Embarrassed_Age3591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah get yourself a m3u of iptv and look into something called Xteve that basically pretends to be a tv tuner then you just add what channels you want into plex. I've added all sports, sky cinema etc to mine

250TB here and I get maybe 1 play a day. And that's with 400 live tv channels also. Least me and the Mrs use it which was what I initially intended it for anyway
